About us
The mission of Denver Public Schools is to provide all students the opportunity to achieve the knowledge and skills necessary to become contributing citizens in our diverse society. In DPS, we’re focused on building a system that’s designed to help every student thrive. We’re re-focusing our efforts where they matter most: on creating classrooms that are vibrant centers of learning, where caring teachers are engaging their students in rigorous, culturally responsive experiences in order to lift all students toward a bright horizon. In the last ten years, DPS has experienced unprecedented growth and an expansion of programs. Building on the strong progress we’ve made, we want to continue transforming DPS into a school district grounded in equity. This districtwide focus on equity will be embedded in everything we do, so that we can help break historical patterns and become a school district that is designed to inspire every student to dream big and make their own future.

🗣️Shoutout to Brenda for being this week's LOD award winner! Keep up the great work!👏 "Brenda Quezada has been a transformational colleague at Northfield when it comes to our efforts to increase our supports for families and putting equity in the center of our work. She has developed and run parent support groups at Northfield the past couple of years. This year, she is collaborating across various teams to offer expanded programming for our Spanish-speaking families, such as our first-ever Spanish-speaking college admission event. The students and families that Brenda supports are lucky to have such a hard working and dedicated professional in their corner. We are so thankful for Brenda each and every day. She is the epitome of equity in action here at Northfield High School." — Nicholas Kresse-Bond, Northfield High School

School bonds do more than improve our buildings; they boost the economy and provide jobs, especially for small and minority-owned businesses. 💼✨ At our 10th Annual Reverse Trade Fair, small businesses networked with prime contractors and DPS stakeholders, gaining exposure and opportunities to collaborate. 🤝 One of our goals with the 2020 bond was to have 24% of our contractors be small businesses, and we exceeded that goal by 4%! 🙌 Thank you, #Denver voters, for investing in our schools and supporting #smallbusinesses in our community! 💙 More info- ourwordourbonddps.org . #MWBE #tradefair #vote
